    Lots of technical stuff but you have a clear explanation of what and how it works. 👍Nice job

    The guy I learned to fall timber from use to polich the inside of the piston and took the sharp edges of the jug,his saws were fast and smooth cutting. You bring up some good ideas for sure. Buying a knock off slug and jusg and messing with these is a great way to learn and not risk a spendy sslug and jug.

    Grinding on the piston skirt and crown used to seem like a really bad idea to me. But seeing all the successful and long lasting builds with piston work, beyond opening windows and chamfering, has gotten me willing to give it a try!

    Enjoying following the build Tinman , articulate as ever ! Hope the family is doing great ❤️

    What a great vid !!! I asked this question months ago but it must of gotten lost in all the shuffle lol so I went ahead not knowing and did all the grinding on a piston, intake, transfers and exhaust for a 372 it was a bit tricky with the numbers being transferred to top of piston laying out transfers and all but I'll tell you it's a runner strong and zippy, thanks TM👍👍

    As always good information! Thank you for sharing what you have learned over the years of building saws.

    The more I watch here, the more I'm tempted to add another Stihl to the mix😊 Good stuff Tinman 👍 Oh, and Kansas is drippy too😅

    Very interesting indeed will continue to observe the progress. TC Mahalo Tinman 🤙🤙🤙

    This is awesome, Tinman. I'm new to the chainsaw obsession and have an old 031av apart in a box. I'll be taking what you show here and applying it directly to that saw. Keep your stick on the ice!

    Window shakers are cheap! Got one in my garage first sweat, life is too short to sweat at home! Started life just outside Phoenix and refuse to drip and be miserable ( make that more than usual) just to save a couple of bucks a month. I’ve earned comfy 😊
  • Interesting to see the piston work. My 026 and 440 magnum are virgins. Just picked up a ms250 that will part out and a ms180c that just needs cleaning, clutch and bearing.

    As always good stuff. Great idea to help out someone new to modifications
